Have you seen any bad behaviour or drama at funerals in Japan?

My friend went to a funeral recently here and there was a *huge* gossip session as the sister wore a navy blue dress with a white blazer and apparently Japanese funerals are strictly strictly all black including stockings. We are all guessing she didn’t get on well with the deceased and wanted to grab attention?

Any other crazy funeral stories ?

I’m visiting Fukuoka from Tokyo - the food is amazing , parks are great (walking track, cycling track and running track around the lake!) vibe is relaxed, people are friendly and transport is great. Why TF am I going back to Tokyo tomorrow night !?

ETA I feel I should clarify I grew up in the inaka so that shapes my perspective a lot on what I am looking for in cities 😂
